You are being given the opportunity to join your Racer on the field and experience a taste of the World Race.
Their journey has been marked by many unique experiences, feelings, and changes. And in many ways, you have been traveling with your Racer each step of the way, often sharing in those new things.
You have probably discovered the Race is so much more than a mission trip – it’s a journey into God’s heart and the identity He designed each of us to walk in.
Our goal is to not only allow you to experience the World Race with your son or daughter by doing mission work together, but to be able to connect in the midst of their journey to better understand how God is at work in their lives.
We also want to share the greater vision of what God is doing around the world by introducing you to our faithful partners and long-term missionaries.
What this trip is:
This trip is a way for parents to live alongside their child in World Race style and participate in intergenerational ministry that will change your life.
You will eat with the local people and try their favorite dishes. You will sleep in the typical housing and beds. You will bathe in whatever style is available and travel in the many versions of local transportation. You will also do ministry with your Racer and see firsthand what the love of God has done in their life.
You will see the intentionality of every moment, how every trip to the store can become a ministry opportunity, how every person you meet can encounter the heart of the Savior, and how missions itself is not an assignment but a lifestyle.
What this trip is not:
This trip is not merely a vacation or break from your daily life. It’s probably not a good way to scout out your son or daughter’s future spouse. It’s also not a time to come with an agenda to fix things, either in your son or daughter or with the Race. It’s best to come with a very open mind and heart, because many of your expectations will not be met, at least not the way you anticipated.
In all honesty, it won’t be the easiest week of your life, but it will be a week you’ll never forget.

Please prayerfully consider joining us for this experience. We cannot promise you American comforts, days of sightseeing, sleep-filled nights, or recognizable food, but we can promise you’ll never be the same and you won’t regret going.
